Stopping at the Platte City McDonald’s for breakfast. In the car in front of me in the drive-thru there was a dog barking. I asked the woman at the window, “Did the dog in front of me give you a ruff time?” Training camp is back, baby!

Inside Thursday's notebook: 💠Kareem Hunt on a full offseason 💠Creed Humphrey on having Juan Castillo & Cam Erving in camp as OL coaches 💠Full list of KC's Bill Walsh Coaching Diversity Fellowships 💠Andy Reid on Tyann Mathieu retirement chiefsdigest.com/camp-notebook-…

For your education and enjoyment, I present to you Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid with his impersonation of Tyrann Mathieu on the sidelines during a game. 11/10, no notes. You’re welcome.

Rain moving into St. Joe. If lightning appears, team will move inside. No fans allowed inside. About an hour left in practice as scheduled.

Chiefs running backs with the first team have been Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt, Elijah Mitchell with sprinkling of Brashard Smith.

Fantastic catch by Rice. High ball, Rice hauls it in with one hand over his head. Most impressive.

No changes along the offensive side line this morning for the Chiefs. Third day of Simmons, Kingsley, Humphrey, Smith and Moore. Looks like status quo until Jawaan Taylor returns.

My time with the @Chiefs Radio Network has come to an end after a great 16 years. It was the honor of my career to be a part of this great organization I grew up cheering for. Getting to work with the great Dan Israel, @mitchholthus, @dahughesguy83 ,@joshklingler, @KendallGammon

Inside the camp notebook: “The Chris Jones Rule” solves a 5 1/2 year-old mystery about why Jones missed the Divisional Round win over Houston in the 2019 season. Plus reaction to Tyrann Mathieu’s retirement and more. chiefsdigest.com/camp-notebook-…

Chiefs camp practice No. 2 an unofficial 1 hour, 24 minutes. Acclimation and ramp-up period engaged. Some big Mahomes throws today, big catches from Hollywood Brown and Brashard Smith. Roster bubble play of the day: Chris Oladokun to Mac Dalena.

Chiefs practice attendance same as day one. Everyone practicing except for the three PUP players: RT Jawaan Taylor, CB Kristian Fulton and TE Tre Harris.

Intriguing development on day two of #MattVsChiefs. Harrison Butker is the early arrival. On the field doing visualization and walkthru. Reasons like this why he’s the second-most accurate field goal kicker in NFL history.

Chiefs RG Trey Smith is one of the best people in the NFL, and his raw, emotional response remembering the promises he made to his late mother is a prime example. If you’ve lost your mom, you’ve probably been exactly where Trey was today.

For the love of all that is holy, Brisco, it’s long past time for a haircut. In all seriousness, congratulations to my dear friend Joshua. He is such a tremendous young talent. This is a great addition to the Chiefs Radio Network. Art Haines is a Hall of Famer, and I consider…

First round of 7-on-7 and Patrick Mahomes 4-of-4. Deep ball to Xavier Worthy, over the middle to Noah Gray and two short throws to Rashee Rice.

First snaps of camp and it’s LT Josh Simmons and RT Jaylon Moore.

I am at the annual training camp kickoff event at Spratt Stadium, so I will not beat the first Chiefs player to practice today. I need someone to track who the first player on the field is today. Starting camp 0-1 but the job comes first. #MattVsChiefs

Can George Karlaftis become the next true game-wrecker off the edge and take the leap from Robin to Batman in KC’s pass rush? @mattderrick and I discuss on a new @41IsTheMic . #Chiefs #ChiefsCamp2025 YouTube: youtu.be/5rbmWs1z-1w?si… Audio: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/41-…

The #Chiefs have signed WR Hal Presley. He was an undrafted free agent out of Baylor that was previously waived by the Bills. KC also had tryouts with WR Amari Rodgers and WR Seth Williams. @KSHB41 @41IsTheMic
